Cree has introduced XLamp XB-D color LEDs and XLamp XM-L multi-color LEDs. The color LEDs provide lighting manufacturers with discrete and multi-color LED options to address a wider spectrum of applications such as architectural, vehicle and display lighting.

Cree XLamp XB-D color LEDs extend the double lumens-per-dollar performance of the XB package to color LEDs, delivering up to 40% higher maximum light output than XP-E color LEDs, the vendor said. The combination of performance and the small size of XB-D color LEDs enable better color mixing and lower system cost through fewer LEDs.

The XM-L color LED is 60% smaller than the MC-E LED, reducing the distance between LED die, to create a small optical source for excellent optical control, efficient color mixing and simplified design.

XLamp XB-D color LEDs deliver up to 1416MW for royal blue, 92 lumens for blue, 198 lumens for green, 210 lumens for red and 261 lumens for red-orange. XLamp XM-L color LEDs deliver up to 89 lumens for royal blue, 214 lumens for green, 229 lumens for red and 272 lumens for white.
